Georgetown Brewing celebrates Pride month with beer release

Updated: 5 hours ago

Georgetown Brewing is kicking off Pride month this year with the debut of Shelly's Leg, a limited-edition beer brewed in honor and celebration of Seattle's queer history.


The beer is named after Seattle's first openly operated gay bar, which opened its doors in Pioneer Square in 1973. The establishment, named after its owner Shelly Bauman (who lost a leg during a tragic accident in 1970), was only open 2 years before a fuel truck fire on the Alaskan Way viaduct damaged the building and ultimately led to the disco's closure in 1977.

Georgetown Brewing is hosting a beer release party for Shelly's Leg on Saturday, May 31. The event will feature a drag show by BACON STRIP, and 100 percent of ticket and beer sales will benefit The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence to support their work spreading joy and uplifting the queer community. Details below:


  • Date: Saturday, May 31, 2025

  • Time: 6 p.m.-9:30 p.m.

  • Location: Georgetown Brewing Co., 5200 Denver Ave S

  • Tickets: $35 general admission (includes 2 drink tickets) or $15 for designated drivers. Tickets can be purchased on the event website.
